The app offers a seamless shopping experience with the web version of Amazon, as it uses the same account, together with your cart and wish list. It lets you browse through Amazon's shopping categories and subcategories with the items shown in a grid of images. Selecting a product will give you a detailed product screen, with a description, user reviews and related products, as well as pictures, videos and audio samples (for music items).

Amazon Windowshop also supports sharing items via Facebook, Twitter or e-mail, adding items to your wish list, discovering what products qualify for Amazon Prime and Amazon's one-click checkout.

With Amazon customers ordering more than $1 billion worth of products per year via their mobile devices, it's no wonder that Amazon is ramping up the iPad shopping experience. Amazon's original iPad app was already quite impressive, but browsing through categories wasn't perfect. Windowshop solves that problem elegantly and makes shopping on the iPad really effortless.

Amazon Windowshop is available for free in the iTunes store.
